Each side of the band is decorated with relief triangle dema

rcated with beading, which is also visible at the end of each terminus. The metal has developed a dark patina of age and wear.
The Yoruba are a Central Nigerian tribal group, originally descended from a Hausa migration from the northeast in about 900 AD
